Ok, so they're really rather different, in distributed system software.

Yes, I understand that; but I was thinking the NT server vs
workstation registry setting.  If there would just have been this
prof/he key.

Yes, Cygwin gives a lot more insight in permissions.  It seems
however, that XP (HE) doesn't respect execute permissions on
directories, in some cases.  Moreover, read and execute permissions in
/cygdrive/c seem to be granted in any case.

    $ mkdir 400; echo 400 > 400/400; chmod 400 400
    $ ls -ld 400 400/400; cat 400/400
    dr--------    2 fred     Geen            0 Mar  7 12:52 400
    -rw-rw-rw-    1 fred     Geen            4 Mar  7 12:52 400/400
    $ cd 400
    bash: cd: 400: Permission denied
    $ ls -l /cygdrive/c/autoexec.bak
    -rwx------    1 tom      Geen           18 Mar  7 12:55 /cygdrive/c/autoexec.bak
